Hello,

 

Can someone please help/guide me in how to set up the "Scan to Network Folder" option for my OfficeJet Pro 8715? I am able to get to the part in the setup where I am to add a Network Folder in the HP Smart Printer settings but I do not know how to set up the network folder. Thank you for your help in advance!

Hi @sh4d0w23

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you with the  "Scan to network folder setup" issue. 

 

Refer to the video to setup scan to scan to network folder-How to Set Up Scan to Network Folder Using HP Software

 

To set up Scan to Network Folder from the printer software (Windows)

1. Open the HP printer software. For more information, see Open the HP printer software (Windows).

2. Click Scan under Print, Scan & Fax , and then click Scan to Network Folder Wizard.

3. Follow the onscreen instructions.

 

NOTE: After you have created destination folders, you can use the printer’s embedded web server (EWS) to customize the scan settings for these folders. On the last screen of the Scan to Network Folder Wizard, make sure the Launch embedded web server when finished check box is selected. When you click Finish, the EWS is displayed in your computer’s default web browser. For more information about EWS, see Embedded web server.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
